Easee is a preview. It works on real chargers, and how your user signs in may change before it’s final.
Adding a charger
Your user chooses how to connect it.- Sign in to Easee
- Use the Easee app
1
Sign in
Your user enters the email and password of the Easee account that owns the charger. Plugchoice passes them to Easee to sign in, and doesn’t keep the password.
2
Pick the charger
Link lists the chargers on the account, with the operator each one has now and whether it’s already on Plugchoice. Your user picks one.
3
Plugchoice becomes its operator
Plugchoice adds the charger to the site, reads its charging history, and becomes its operator at Easee. The charger usually comes online within a minute.
- The current operator can stay. Plugchoice replaces the charger’s operator at Easee. When it had one, Link names it and your user can keep it connected alongside Plugchoice.
- Charging history comes along when your user signs in: Plugchoice imports the charger’s sessions from Easee.
- Easee may refuse. A charger on a site that another operator manages can’t be switched from the owner’s account. Link says so and offers the Easee app instead.
- A charger that already has Plugchoice as its operator isn’t switched again; it’s just added.
Reconnecting it
Thereconnect action offers the same two ways: signing in to Easee, or confirming Plugchoice in the Easee app (no serial number needed then). It makes Plugchoice the charger’s operator again when it isn’t, and waits until the charger is online. Its network is changed in the Easee app, so its reconnect capability has network: false.
When something goes wrong
Link shows these to your user and lets them try again, sign in again, or use the Easee app. You don’t need to handle them.
If neither way works, your user can choose By hand and set the charger up as another OCPP charger.
